The Manufacture of Ice.

Ice can now be made artifcially for 81
a ton, and the day is not far off when cold
will be produced in dwelling houses just
as heat is now by radiators and furnished
through street mains 1t is even possible
that the same radiators which serve for
heating purposes in winter may serve for
cooling purposes in summer.
The business is a constantly growing
one, so much so that there are now forty
firms in the United States making refrig-
Grating machines. For the last six months
there has been one new plant for making
ice set up every day in the south. Our
New York manufacturers send plants
almost weekly to the south, and even to
Trinidad and Cuba. One plant for ice
making, costing $40, 900, went last week
to a town in Ecuador, Immediately ON the

chimes, but having no interest in their
manufacture, tell me that they believe ice
for refrigerating purposes will be Curl
osity twenty years from now. In the
great cold storage warehouses the quality
of the air is that of fine winter day; il is
so dry that you can strike a match upon
any of the walls. But the pipes which
convey the cooling mixture are covered

TO nv WIFE.

Why need you care, dear,wife, or heed,
The passing Of your early gracei
What though the lilies suhersede
The springtime roses OF your face.
What though the azure of your eyes
Has mellowed to q softer bluey
The fairest tints that deck the skies
Are caught from twilights fading hue.
Why should the ripened fruit regret
Its summer bloom, howe'er so fairi
Why need you sigh, though Time should set
His crown Of silver on your hairf
The sweetest fragrance Of the rose
Is from its fading petals pressed.
And Nature spreads her earliest SHOWS
Above the flowers she loves the best.
What care we for the vanished years,
Save for the fruit their summers broughti
What care we for our fallen tears,
Save for the rainbows ON them wrought
Why should we mourn the joys we shared,
Or see them perish with regret.
Since on the fruit our hearts have Jared,
And memory keeps the rainbows yeti
What though our winter time has como,
And summers buds and blooms explref
Love hath an ever radiant home,
And bids US welcome TO its flre.
He dwelt with US through all the spring:
We sheltered him from summers heat;
Now at his hearth we'll sit and sing.
And let the wintry tempest beat.
